…..We became family friends with Mr Raphael and Mimi,we went to their place often,while they come to ours too, especially Mimi, oh she loved mother and I,she always loved to be with us.Mr Raphael soon began to buy things in twos whenever he bought for his daughter,she brings the other to me, Mimi liked us putting on matching outfits,when we go out people ask mother or Mr Raphael (yes you heard me Mr Raphael takes us out together with his daughter often),are your daughters twin,to cut long story short they would always say yes.i was two months Mimi’s senior,we were almost same height,and both beautiful teenagers.

One day as we went to visit Mr Raphael n Mimi,I asked for pictures,mini brought their family abulm,they were beautiful memories,and we saw more of Mimi’s mom’s pictures,so I asked her, Mirabel,where is your mom?I had asked…

She kept quiet for sometime,her father and my mom were there too, she passed,her father replied,oh so sorry Mr Raphael,Mimi my daughter so sorry dear,mother said,went to were she was and held her tightly , trying to console her,she was almost in tears,was she sick,mother asked Mr Raphael..

No she wasn’t,she had a stillbirth,she couldn’t take the pain, because that baby had come after a long time,we had Mimi,we had that child after 10years of having Mimi,we were all happy,and getting ready to welcome the baby,but unfortunately the baby didn’t make it alive , Angela couldn’t come to terms to the fact that we lost the baby,,she started thinking so much, taking hard drinks and locking herself inside the baby’s supposed room.it was difficult for me,I tried to help her heal,but she shut me out completely,she wanted to be alone,she could stay indoors for a week without seeing the sun.soon she fell sick,and her heart couldn’t take the pains,she died,we all were in tears now.

I am so sorry, mother said,oh no need to be,it’s been years now, we are getting over it.mr Raphael said.

We became super close to the family, Mimi could pass the night in our place,while I do the same at her place,we went out together,we went to some beautiful places ,and had fun.

Mr Raphael couldn’t thank me and my mother for accepting them into our homes and lives, according to him,his daughter was only this happy and playful when her mother was alive,but she had withdrawn,after her mother’s death and had been trying hard to live without her mother.When mother heard this,she felt bad for Mimi,and she took her like her own daughter,she gave her the love of a Mother,it may not have been like her mother’s,but mother loved her genuinely and she knew it.

Soon mother on Mr Raphael became Friends with Mother,when ever we had Parents Teachers Association meeting,the available parents goes to represent, Mother sometimes goes to represent Mimi,while Mr Raphael Sometimes represents me.we were happy to have met each other,as it seems we were complementing ourselves.

Mother told Mr Raphael her story,and how unlucky she had been with men,and her decision to give up on love,and to concentrate in been a perfect mother for me.Never say never he said,no one is too old to find love, and no matter how life treats you,don’t give up on love, there’s a special person for you,some persons find their true love at first trial,others at second,third,forth or even fifth,but if they had given up ,they would have died miserably,so please relax,and hope for the best,he said…

Aunty Sarah was happy for mother,that had always there dream,that mom be a wife.

Being in an abusive marriage,and trying to change an adult is a no no ,mom was able to be with a man who valued and values her.
